Environment Week 

Last week was Enviro week and it was great to spend the week trying to make a positive impact on our environment. On Monday we went without heaters, lights and computers in order to reduce our energy consumption and reflect on what school used to be like. We raised over $450 for our new vegie patches. We will work with James (our amazing maintenance man) and these will begin production next term. If anyone can source some packing pellets for us we would love to hear from you. Please email Mr Jenkins (d.jenkins@jpps.vic.edu.au)

Tuesday was nude food day and it was great to see a much smaller number of wrappers in classrooms. On Wednesday we donated over 450kg of 2nd hand clothes to the Salvation army (check out the video on the school facebook site). On Friday it was walk to school day. Thank you all for participating in Enviro week.

Performing Arts Troupe

Auditions have been progressing well for our performing arts troupe and will conclude this week. We will notify all children who auditioned as  to the possible involvement in activities moving forward. Next term we will release details of where and when the troupe is performing and follow up permissions. Thank you to everyone who has auditioned and for your patience.

Sporting Colours Day

Today the Level 6 House Captains ran a Sporting Colours day. Everyone came in their favourite sport colours and did a parade to show what sports they like. The main purpose of the day was celebrating the AFL and NRL finals. Everyone sang their song with pride, especially the teams which remained in AFL and NRL finals.

The Level 4-6 students played sports including kickball, dodgeball, handball and volleyball. Everyone went home with a smile on their face after having a great day. Well done everyone and Go the Cats!
